They require clear, detailed and specific explanations of a number of bills amounting in total to nearly 30.000 euros.
Bills that were rejected by the municipal intervention, but we are certain that if those bills were submitted to the Department of Sports is because someone told him so beneficiaries and creditors
The elected councilor of the PSOE, Isidro Abellán has made clear the commitment of the PSOE to transparency and good governance as fundamental axes for municipal management, so that advertise that they will be "intolerant of any attempt by the government team mask or not justify each of the movements that have to do with the municipal budget, so we will be relentless in our quest to claim absolute clarity and transparency in municipal coffers. "
The result of this effort, from the PSOE today demand the government team "explanations on a number of doubts raised about past invoices Governing Board on May 29, by the way, five days after the municipal elections, or that is, when even the election results in which the Popular Party did not have a majority, so they might think he was trying to solve a number of issues at the prospect of losing the mayorship "remained.
"According to what is stated in the minutes of the Board of Local Government, the technicians of the Department of Sports requested the issuance of a report to the municipal auditor to state whether they could not afford or a series of bills that had reached this Department. The report of the auditor was negative, which meant that the payment of these bills, despite several attempts to be paid by the City of Lorca was rejected, "said Abellán.
The social responsibility specifies that "in particular, this series of bills to which we refer and which are detailed in this act, could be divided into three groups: 1. Bill of third parties not correspond to the City of Lorca, having no contract or any agreement justifying the payment, which amount to the amount of 21.025,90.- euro2. Invoices that no maintenance technician can certify Sports Council has been made, or where there have been no what they are, and add 6.536,00.- euros. And 3, an invoice of work done in a private sports center, which is the amount of euros 2.401,85.- ".
In this regard, the first question they put on the mayor of sports is "having been almost a month since then, have been paid those bills despite not being approved by the intervention of the City? And at the same time, based on Why contract, agreement or credited sponsored documentary is presented these invoices to the Department of Sports? confirmed this type of behavior, as reflected in the minutes of the Local Government, it would be, apart from a very serious action by the council that authorized the payment of these invoices, a comparative disadvantage with other dozens of sports clubs in this town that bad living on grants that are given, and certainly are increasingly cut ".
"In order to find these explanations, also directly asked the Councillor for Sports: what consisted those?" Maintenance "as reflected in these minutes ¸ to what facilities and under what supervision were done ?, Who those controlled maintenance? And what really took place? Lastly, but no less worrisome, based on what agreement an investment by the city of Lorca is made on private property? ".
"We can say that, fortunately, municipal services, in particular the officials of the Department and Intervention own, have fallen short and have prevented the illegality of paying bills without legal support providers. No doubt either the performance or entrepreneurs or athletes, which surely had bills in the city of Lorca as directed by someone. However, we can not ignore this disturbing behavior of Mr. Councillor for Sports. " Abellán added.
The Socialist councilor insists that "we would not have to be constantly asking for transparency in the management if there is a transparency portal where you specify all of this we demand, as we proposed in our Programme for Government."
"In short, and in the interests of transparency, the Councillor for Sports should give clear, detailed and specific of these bills amounting to almost 30.000 euros explanations. Invoices that were rejected by the municipal intervention, but we are certain that if those bills were submitted to the Department of Sports is because someone told him so beneficiaries and creditors ", says Isidro Abellán.
